It's a fun spot but people have been cracking down. Some crazy farmer has set up a bunch of steel wire across the trails. He's gonna end up killing someone. Where are you from Dana? Thanks for watching as always!
Trueaussie yeah but at the same time lots of people say ohh well 125s are slow or weak. I’ve seen guys on 125s smoke the shit out of 250s and 450s. Yes the bike plays a role in it. But it’s more on the rider.
Man I bought a rmz250 a couple days ago but in England we are limited where we can ride,but watching this video has assured me that buying that bike was the right thing to do
Still got it mate? How you finding it? I've had RM125's myself, love a two stroke, my last one was tuned up pretty nice, ripped your arms off lol. Seen a nice shape 2006 rmz250 on eBay that I'm thinking of getting, just not too familiar with them since I've always had two strokes. Any thing you can advise me on to look out for would be appreciated! I'm also in England too, hard to find places where you won't get nicked ain't it 😂.
after seeing this i really want one of those older yzf's! lol. damn it sounds so sick and was doing fine against the rm-z.. that old-school muffler is beast, too!
Hey buddy just wondering would you recommend the RMZ250? Because I currently own a YZ250F 2010 and want to buy a fuel injected 250.. Was thinking RMZ? But I guess I want someones opinion that owns one. (From Australia !) @Derek Hallman
both of those are really nice bikes but I've just always had a thing for YZs! Great vids though and that dudes doin awesome on the upgraded bike! Plus really cool of u to sale ur bike to ur buddy..
I started with a old yamaha yz125 a 1990. perfect beginner bike for me. well i had riden a kawasaki 80cc when i was like 7-9. and i bought the 125 when i was 13.
Oh, I used to ride power lines near Freeland, Hazleton Pa. when I was a young pup. 60's and 70's, a 4hp tecumseh also ridden in the strip mines late 60's and 70's. We have plenty of power lines here in Ocean County NJ but the federales are not hip to the 2-smoke or 4. New Jersey because of its dense population really restricts that stuff it seems to practically nothing. Cheers
Yeah he is doing much better, although he was out of commission for a while. Crashed really hard and punctured his spleen and shattered both of his wrists.
Hey Derek question I can spend about 2200 Canadian and want my first Dirtbike I'm debating on a yz125 or yz250f probly 2005 and under what should i do only bike I've ridden was a crf230 and yfz450 (quad) I'm 15 and 5,9 Thanks a lot!
Either bike will fit you just fine. You are the size of a full size rider. A 125 can be fun if you like 2 strokes, and a 250 can be fun if you like 4 strokes. They will both have the power for you. 4 strokes cost more but 2 strokes need maintenance more. Still 4 strokes end up more expensive. It's basically up to you if your fine with everything I just said. You can't go wrong with those 2 bikes, very reliable. Just watch some videos on both 2 strokes and 4 strokes, see the differences and decide which is cooler!
+Ghostrida 37 i like both 2 stroke I could work on by my self Mabey not the 4 stroke I have a fear of the powerband on a 2 stroke I feel like I'll get bucked of or just not like the 2 stroke
I really like the vid, could you do more like this, and also, would you recommend a 150cc for someone that has only ridden like three times? and also, any advice for a basic beginner? sorry for all the questions xD
Yeah he got the hang of it quick. Once I told him how to find top dead center and he practiced his kicking method he was fine. Starts first or second kick every time.
Building a rmz 250 myself. Could use some help in my comments section on my tear down. No idea what I'm doing but it's gonna be one hell of a build I promise you that.
Sick Vlog! It came up in my feed and gave it a watch. My only complaint is you riding that hideous banana. Soo glad you grew up and got a REAL brand bike xD that isn't a heavy clunk of yellow shit.
+Fishifyed Then that's because of UA-cam's compression. Whenever there are tons of trees around, UA-cam compresses the shit outta the video and reduces the quality. Look at the clips in the wide open field, the quality is great.
Lol big upgrade for him lmao . I went from a xr50 to an xr80 and then when I outgrew that I kinda stole my dads bike as he didn't ride it frequently anyway . So I went from xr80 that had like less than 10hp to a 2006 YZ450f . Yeah so big upgrade for me lol haha
I was 11 when I first started riding the Yz450f , and for another thing , a Kx65 has more horsepower than a 4 stroke trail xr80 . Which makes like I said LESS than 10 , not the 13-15 hp range of a kx65 . And I wasn't trying to act like a badass either , a Yz450f is too much power for anyone any age unless they are above 200lbs , unless you are strictly racing , also in that case you would most likely be faster on a 250 anyway . Nice talking to ya buddy .
I ride a 1997 RM 80 and 2006 CR 85. I'm 5,11, 14 and I see these juicy RM-Z 250's and they look slick as fuck so I'm gonna buy one of these. I wanted a CRF 150R so bad as I want a four stroke race bike, but they like 4000 £ so naaaa. Is there any other 4 stroke race bikes? ty
Suzuki is the second most reliable bike you can buy (Behind yamaha) according to a survey taken by motorcycle and dirt bike riders. I've got an 2005 Rm125 and it still runs amazing! On another website I found the rm125 is the best used 2 stroke you can buy out there. dirtbikemagazine.com/the-10-best-used-2-strokes/
The 2014 rmz250 only has like 36 horsepower. The 2005 yz250f makes no less than 34, even if you both weighed the same, it's likely the yz would still outrun the rmz. Honda is still better than either brand tho >:)
I released some new shirts! teespring.com/stores/derek-hallman-merchandise Please take a look, any support is so greatly appreciated!
Derek Hallman lol all these kids are making fun of our rmz 250s. Yet when I ride with my friends who have yz250fs I blow past them lol
Man I am so jealous of that riding. Let me bring down my YZ250 and lets have a battle!! Good video as always my friend!

Your bike sounds very nice !
loved the video man, looks like a blast!
Thanks for watching dude!
I'm like 5'7 and 175LB been riding a crf150. Do you guys think a crf250R is a good bike to upgrade to.
If you go to shift up for more power you usually need a bigger bike. Awesome video!
For fields like that I would love a 450! For all the tight woods riding I do, I'm satisfied with my 250 :)
Riding power line trails near me an a Ltz 400 is awesome
3:31 helmet unbuckled? Anyone else notice
Derek what edition GoPro do you have and what is your mic setup?
Loved your thoughts on the mud puddle 🤣
Hey man love your edits and your videos where did you mount your GoPro in this video ?

22, gonna be 23 in September though. He got the hang of it quick, thanks for watching like always bro!
You have an external mic for the GoPro right? If so, which one do you use? Great vid btw!
Hi Derek! what gopro settings you used in this video? I mean: Quality' FPS, iso ecc. thanks, you're the best!
I have an xr80 at the moment and I am planning to upgrade to a 250xl is it a good choice?
hope to own a 250-4 stroke eventually, I still do love my rm125 though
You ever get one my man just got my 2014 RMZ 250 and love it
I had a crf150r 2007 and before that a 2002 xr100r and now a 2015 kx250f and love it
Nice!
Derek Hallman thanks
Do you record you're audio with a external mice?
heh that looks fun. Yall go way faster than I'm comfortable going out in the boonies. So paranoid about getting hurt 20 miles from help.

i am 175 cm, i dont now how many inch that is.

I am 14 i got a yamaha yzf250 2003 with a athena big bore kit (290cc) and its perfect for me, i am 184-186cm tall.

you are 22 or 21am I right?
Do you have a lot of trouble with the Rmz 250 because people say their not good
Nah man no problems at all I love it. There are haters for every brand.
Yeah I want one but people tell me not to get one
Suzuki is the second most reliable bike you can buy (Behind yamaha) according to a survey taken by motorcycle and dirt bike riders. I've got an 2005 Rm125 and it still runs amazing!
On another website I found the rm125 is the best used 2 stroke you can buy out there.
dirtbikemagazine.com/the-10-best-used-2-strokes/
The 2014 rmz250 only has like 36 horsepower. The 2005 yz250f makes no less than 34, even if you both weighed the same, it's likely the yz would still outrun the rmz. Honda is still better than either brand tho >:)
deniaL KTM AND HUSKY are the best sellers in Enduro and Trails.
Doesn't mean they're good bikes.
Those thumpers run good. Back in my riding days 4 strokes were stupid slow.
Yeah nowadays they are race machines!
